Free Practice Questions for SAP C_S43_2022 Exam

 Material planning in the maintenance order is the process of determining the type, quantity, and availability of the materials required for carrying out the maintenance tasks. There are some considerations regarding material planning in the maintenance order, such as:

Material can be assigned at the operation level or the sub-operation level, but not at the order header level. This is because the material requirement is linked to the specific work that needs to be done in the order. Therefore, option A is incorrect1.

For stock material, you always need a reservation to ensure that the material is available when needed. A reservation is a request to the warehouse to keep a certain amount of material ready for withdrawal at a certain time. Therefore, option B is correct1.

A goods issue is the physical withdrawal of material from the warehouse. It can be entered for both planned and unplanned material in the maintenance order. Planned material is the material that is specified in the order before the actual execution of the work. Unplanned material is the material that is added to the order during or after the execution of the work. Therefore, option C is correct2.

The pick list is a document that lists all the materials that are required for a maintenance order. It can be printed after the order release, not before. The order release is the step that confirms that the order is ready to be executed and the materials can be withdrawn from the warehouse. Therefore, option D is incorrect3.

SAP Service and Asset Manager is a predictive asset management application that supports both maintenance and service technicians. Using this app, you can manage work orders, notifications, condition monitoring, material consumption, time management, and failure analysis1.

Some of the standard functionalities of SAP Service and Asset Manager are:

Technical objects: You can view and edit technical objects such as functional locations, equipment, and measuring points. You can also create new technical objects or link existing ones to work orders or notifications2.

Work orders and operations: You can view and edit work orders and operations assigned to you or your team. You can also create new work orders or operations, or confirm them as completed2.

ESRI Maps: You can view the location of your work orders, notifications, and technical objects on an interactive map powered by ESRI. You can also use the map to navigate to your destination or search for nearby assets2.

The other options are not standard functionalities of SAP Service and Asset Manager. Cost analytics and breakdown analytics are features of SAP Intelligent Asset Management, which is a cloud-based solution that integrates with SAP Service and Asset Manager to provide advanced insights and recommendations for asset performance3. References: 1: SAP Service and Asset Manager Overview 2: SAP Service and Asset Manager User Guide 3: SAP Intelligent Asset Management Overview

To schedule a performance-based maintenance plan, you need to specify the start counter reading and the estimated annual performance of the equipment or functional location. The start counter reading is the initial value of the counter assigned to the maintenance plan. The estimated annual performance is the expected value of the counter for one year. These parameters are used to calculate the maintenance cycle and the due date for the maintenance plan. The scheduling period and the counter overflow reading are optional

SAP Service and Asset Manager is a cloud-based mobile app that provides the following capabilities:

SAP Service and Asset Manager is available for SAP S/4HANA and SAP ERP. This means that the app can integrate with both systems and access the data and processes related to asset management and service operations12

SAP Service and Asset Manager can be used offline. This means that the app can store data locally on the device and synchronize it with the backend system when the network connection is available. This enables the users to work in remote areas or in situations where the network is unreliable12

SAP Service and Asset Manager can run on smart watches. This means that the app can leverage the features of wearable devices such as voice control, notifications, and sensors. This enhances the user experience and productivity of the field technicians13

SAP Service and Asset Manager does not provide the following capabilities:

SAP Service and Asset Manager does not provide single sign-on functionality. This means that the app requires the users to enter their credentials to log in to the app and the backend system. The app does not support any other authentication methods such as biometric or token-based2

SAP Service and Asset Manager is not available only for the iOS platform. This means that the app can run on both iOS and Android devices. The app supports the native features and user interface of both platforms12

Changing the primary key of a functional location means changing the label of the functional location. The label is the unique identifier of the functional location and it consists of a structure indicator and a functional location identification. The structure indicator defines the allowed characters and the hierarchy levels of the functional location structure. The functional location identification is the actual name of the functional location. When you change the primary key of a functional location, you can either change the structure indicator or the functional location identification, or both. If you change the structure indicator, you need to adjust the functional location identification accordingly. If you change the functional location identification, you need to decide whether the functional location is assigned to a new superior functional location or not. A superior functional location is the functional location that is directly above the current functional location in the hierarchy. For example, if you have a functional location FL-01-02-03, where FL is the structure indicator, 01 is the first level, 02 is the second level, and 03 is the third level, you can change the primary key to FL-01-02-04, which means changing the functional location identification within the same level. In this case, you need to decide whether the functional location is still assigned to FL-01-02 as the superior functional location or not. Alternatively, you can change the primary key to FL-01-03, which means changing the functional location identification to a different level. In this case, you need to decide whether the functional location is still assigned to FL-01 as the superior functional location or not.

The user does not need to define a new labelling system for the new primary key, as the labelling system is defined by the structure indicator, which can be reused for different functional locations. Therefore, answer A is incorrect. The functional location can be assigned to a new superior functional location when the new label is entered, as long as the new label is consistent with the structure indicator and the hierarchy rules. Therefore, answer B is also incorrect. Changing the superior functional location via alternative labeling is possible, as alternative labeling allows you to assign different labels to the same functional location. Therefore, answer C is also incorrect. References: Explaining Technical Asset Structures - SAP Learning, Organizational Elements and Structures | SAP Help Portal, and SAP Alternative Labeling of Functional Locations.

The work center influences cost calculation in the maintenance order via the cost center and activity type, and via the activity type and hourly rate. The cost center and activity type are assigned to the work center in the master data, and they determine the planned costs of the work center. The activity type and hourly rate are used to calculate the actual costs of the work center based on the actual hours reported for the maintenance order operations.

Option A (Via cost center assigned to a personnel number) is incorrect, because the cost center assigned to a personnel number is not relevant for the cost calculation of the work center. Option C (Via organizational unit and personal hourly rate) is also incorrect, because the organizational unit and personal hourly rate are not used to calculate the costs of the work center.
